This is a huge big spoiler for my current plans but...
I'm an amateur animator. I'm fairly decent artist I feel you might have seen my monstrosities (BKupa was magnificent enough to add them to the collection on the front page) but I've got a plan I'm going to work hard on as soon as I'm done with some other things I need to finish at the moment. You ready?

I've cut the audio from the scene where "One of Us" is played in that episode and the little interactions between "brainwashed" DK and K. Rool moments after.
I'm going to animate a brand new sequence (2D animation but I've got the mind of film-maker so it's been as though it's in a 3D environment) for it! My own fan take on the scene!

The best part? I'm updating the look of DK and K. Rool so they look like (or more like) their game counterparts!

Sooooo.... my fellow kutthroats, what d'you think? :D :D
I'm excited!
I'll be thrilled to see it whenever it's done, which is hopefully soon (although it is true "you can't rush art").

I'd love to see it. I know we'll all enjoy it. Good luck!
I'm usually bad at sticking to stuff. I'm human. I get sick of seeing the same thing over and over again...
But if I myself am passionate about the subject matter (or am just so into the joke I feel I'd regret it I didn't) I can see it through to the end.
I'm certain this will be the case. I love K. Rool and I love that song on more levels than on humour value. Seriously. I love the deviousness of it all, the whole villain-hero "buddy" idea. I just have that mind. Nuances are everywhere if you seek 'em out. Even if it's only in your head. I loo-ove it! :)

Edit:
I mean look at that GIF in my sig! (Taken from the song's intro) Look at that s**t-eating grin! He knows how dastardly this idea is and he's loving every second of it! :D

I'll be thrilled to see it whenever it's done, which is hopefully soon (although it is true "you can't rush art").
I'll link my storyboards when they're ready.

"Directly to you."

The new screen KOs (The character faceplants into the screen before sliding down it cartoon-style) make me yearn for K. Rool even more. His expression when you clog his blunderbuss would be perfect for it.

I could also very easily see some expression similar to the one in the avatar of @Groose, from the cartoon.

Oh sweet, I wasn't the only one who saw him. That's fantastic because I was starting to believe I imagined that banana rain. Huge props to Godzilla Man for that, I really felt awful for getting people excited over something I ended up not being able to even prove.

I'm going back for the Saturday Best Buy as well, so I'll make it my mission that day to get some footage of Chunky for all of you. And long live King of the Krocs!

At first I thought he sounded like a clone idea. But thinking about it for a bit, he wouldn't be too bad of a choice.

Also Chunky footage would be nice. I'm curious to see what he can do since he's apparently confirmed as an AT.

Not only that, but trollface/funny face DK vs. K. Rool in a funny/troll faces contest will be the stuff of legends.

Damnit. I'm so hyped to hear more and more people report seeing Chunky. I JUST NEED SOME VIDEO CONFIRMATION... x.x Here's hoping someone nabs it on Saturday.

The assist trophy thing is sounding a little like Bigfoot, people have reported but no one has proof. I really hope they're not trolling.

There's at least 4 or 5 people here reporting it. They are reporting it, and describing the same way.

Many of these users whom have been around long enough to have a good reputation, and they're putting it on the line for this (what is logically) either a report of what they saw or a troll move.

Regardless, we'll know the truth for 100%, but likely they are telling the truth. And if they are doing a cheap troll job, they can expect infractions and to be shamed. If they're telling the truth, their reputation will shoot through the roof.

If someone with say a larger clout in the community such as a top poster, a smash staff member, a top/well known smash player, a mod sees it, or (even better) we get video of it, then it's 100% real guys.

Well I suppose it is possible. I spent the last few days watching Smash footage and I only saw the Magnus assist trophy once so it does show some trophies tend to be very rare. Still I just wish someone would take a picture.

I'll be the first in line on Saturday (I'll be there like 5 hours early with my brother), and we will see what we find. I know plenty of other people doing similar things as well. Trust me, we'll either find it or more people will catch on.

Regardless, I assume the mods have checked these people reporting this for any PM connections to fact check, so I assume their trust of them means we should trust them, lol! :laugh:

This gets better and better for our King! If Chunky is confirmed with video proof or pic of the day, K Rool's chances go up even more, and I'd say they are at least at 60% after we saw the Kremlings in Smash Run.

Can't wait to see Chunky in action!

I'm gonna be honest here.

Chunky is one of my favorite Kong's (and therefore favorite video game characters ever), from one of my favorite games ever. I would be beyond thrilled to see him as an Assist Trophy in the game.

Not to jump back to the possible leaked characters becoming true thing again but I just thought, what if Sakurai just got done showing all three of the expected characters(chrom, shulk, and chorus men) in the last direct then thanked us for following him along with the game's development and what not. Suddenly a last minute reveal trailer shows and well, I think we can all guess who it is. It'd kinda be like Salurai's way of saying "You did'nt really think those would be the last of the newcomers did you?"

I can totally see Chunky kong with a giant rock above his head standing right in front of your character and then smile at you and crush it on your head like an egg or something.:denzel:

So much excitement here; it's almost as if K. Rool was confirmed!

But that day will come, be it a Direct or launch, it will come.

LOL, what a joke. People treat Pac-Man's inclusion as Christ's second coming or something.

K. ROOL would be that for me. XD

Different strokes for different blokes, really.

I'm thrilled with Pac-Man, though K. Rool would make me go bonkers. :laugh: Hopefully we get picture/video confirmation of Chunky Kong soon. The more revived DK material, the better.

I really hope at least one other fan favorite like K. Rool or Ridley or some-such make it in, otherwise I'll be a very unhappy camper. (This has nothing to do with the fact that I have a K. Rool button in my signature, I promise.)

I've noticed a trend in Brawl that's continuing in SSB4 -- the fan favorites are deliberately being left out in favor of surprise characters, and I think this is being done on purpose, either to hold back flagship characters that would guarantee sales of future games or simply to snub the audience and reassert the fact that Nintendo's in control, not the fanbase. I had a funny feeling SSB4 was going to be Brawl plus a few new characters, and seeing the demo at Smash Fest confirmed that. I mean, the engine itself is nice and polished, but without a roster filled with characters people actually want, what does it matter?

So I hope you guys get what you want and that K. Rool makes it in. Or Ridley. Or even Takamaru. Or SOMEONE people actually want.

By the by: I got to try out Smash Run on the 3DS at the event. I saw Tiki enemies but no Kremlings which I thought was odd. There was one really big Tiki.

Frankly, Pac-Man is the first hype-inducing newcomer we've had IMO.

No, that was Mega Man. And Pac-Man wasn't hype-inducing, he KILLED my hype. Granted, it was really "Mii Fighter" than killed my hype. But seeing all these additional DK additions is helping me feel better again.

:4megaman:

Pac-Man was a very divisive character, in fact. The reactions to him have been rather positive only because of the way Sakurai handled him.

Megaman and Little Mac were really well received too.
I'm just speaking personally on that. I like Mac and Megaman too, but being able to have Pac-Man and Mario fighting eachother is incredible to think about.

All I've really realistically wanted from this game is a good DK newcomer, Dixie or K. Rool (and everyone to return from Brawl so we don't lose anything). Anything else is just a bonus.

I really can't see either K. Rool or Dixie (or both) not getting in. If you don't believe the Sal leak, then at least one of them is super likely. If you do believe the leak, he mentioned DLC and I would find it hard to believe at least one of them wouldn't make the cut for that.... so still, super likely.

The fact that we haven't seen a DK stage on Wii U really has me curious, too.

@ TheAnvil TheAnvil Character reveals have actually been pretty hype for me, personally. Megaman, Villager, Little Mac, and Palutena were all on my most wanted list... different strokes I guess.

Our best hope is that -- Sal didn't mention Rosalina, so we may get one or two more newcomers. Unlike most other people I'm not buying into the 48 roster as gospel yet, as we have no definitive proof of 4 cuts, and the Brawl demo select screen didn't indicate that we'd get 39 characters (or 36 slots on the screen).

So that could easilly afford us either more newcomers, less cuts, or a mixture of both.

K. Rool and/or Dixie would be right up there for likely newcomers. If Ridley doesn't make the base game as playable then he won't be at all as obviously we've seen that he has some roll in it.
